Professional Entertainers

Within the past five or six years a new
calling in the amusement line has come into
existence. Those who follow it may be desig-
mated as professional entertainers, and thew
find plenty to do at club receptions and social
gatherings at private houses without going
upon the stage. An expert upon the banjo
or violin joins forces with good reader or
humorist, and they may take in third who
has gair reputation as a pianist. This
trio, If made up of fair artists, is capable Of
presenting programme of light and enter
tanning character admirably suited to a club
reception.
A majority of these professional entertain
ers stand well socially and after finishing
their programme become the guests of the
club or family where they may appear. 1T
Is very pleasant way of making a living,n
said one of these entertainers few evenings
ago. "lf you make any reputation your SER
vices are sure to be constantly in demand all
through, the season, and if you are so in.
clined you can pick up good living at the
several watering places in the summer time.
Now | give recitations and readings and on
occasion can act as accompanies upon the
piano My partner plays the banjo, violin
and piano, and also possesses a fair tenor
voice, so you see together we can give plenty
OF variety III our programme. After you
have gained a little reputation at one club
the members of the other clubs are sure to
hear of it and you soon manage to make
plenty of dates ahead. "-Brooklyn Eagle

The Language of Gloves.

For "Yes." drop one glove from the right
hand into the left hand. "No" is said by
rolling both gloves in the right hand If you
want TO express that You ara Indifferent to a
partner take tho right hand glove partly off
If you wish a male friend to follow you into
the next room strike your LETT arm with both
gloves II love you still" is indicated by
slowly and carefully smoothing both gloves
II the fair one desires to know whether her
affection is reciprocated she is to put on half
the left hand glove, one finger at time. BE
on your guard against the governor" or my
mother in law" cs the case may be, is q mes
sage often sent, and is given ty delicately
twisting the glove finger round the thumb.
If the dansel is in a quarrelsome mood she
simply makes cross with both her gloves
and proceeds to lay them on her lap in this
position. These are the principal and most
simple rules-Pall Mall Gazette.

And a thinness of crop where the upland is
cleared:
To note how you take to'sippers and gown
And hug to the fire when you get home from
town;
All, that's what it is to be forty
To find that your shadow has portlier grown.
That your voice has practical, businesslike
tone;
eThat your vision is tricky which once was so
bright,
And hint of a wrinkle is coming to light:
All, that's what it is 10 be forty.
A sleigh ride, a party, dance or dine;
Why, of course, you'll be present, you never
decline;
But alas there's no invite, you're not young
folks, you see;
You're olonger peach, but crab apple tree;
An, that's what it is to be forty.
A daughter that grows like a lily. a queen,
And that blooms like a rose in a garden of
green,
A dapper young clerk in an ice cream saloon,
Both dude and a Ounce is to carry off soon;
And boy that is ten, and the pride of your
eye,
Is caught smoking vile cigarettes on the sly
All, that's what it is To be forty.
At twenty man dreams of power and fame;
At thirty his fire has a soberer flame;
At forty his dreams and his visions are DER,
And he knows and he feels as he neer did
before
That a man is fool till he's forty.
